Pros

Real-life testing on vehicles, learning about UK-US differences, exploring leading edge tech for autonomous systems

Cons

Decisions about software development/production made by management who come from a physical-manufacturing paradigm, UK leadership typically not trusting US leadership advice/decisions, excessive reliance on engineers to design user interfaces without any input from real users or UX experts.

Pros

- Amazing work culture and work life balance - As a designer the world is your oyster of how you want to grow and develop - Manager is amazing at communicating your needs and empathizing with you - Everyone is driven to be a better designer and so much support from everyone

Cons

- Having to work sometimes really early or nighttime due to time zone differences with some of the people we work with - Projects & goals sometimes have to change in the week to better fit business needs and team goals.

Pros

Great work life balance Supportive environment

Cons

If you fall in the less than 3 years experience bucket, your best shot is the new graduate positions which have terrible pay and full-time employment after 2-years is not guaranteed.
